I haven't been this pissed for a very long time!
It's an absolute disgrace! And I really hope so much pressure is put on FIA now that they take some points away from both Ferrari drivers. Plus make it crystal clear to Ferrai that if this happends one more time they will lose all points in both the drivers and constructors championship, plus one year ban from F1. This is supposed to be entertainment! How naive do they think the fans are???
I used to think F1 is nothing without Ferrari. Now I think F1 would have been much better off without that mafioso team! A bunch of liars!!!
And as to drivers Alonso has been one of my favorites. But the last couple of seasons he has shown a really bad side of himself. For me he's now arrogant, self-occupied and not a fair racing driver.
I felt the same about Schumi, he was my favorite until he delibarately crashed into Villeneuve to try and become world champion again... (Villeneuve comment at the press conference was fantastic btw: "I don't know what happended to Michael, his hands must have slipped on his steering wheel or something...")
How can these guys live with themselves? I understand winning is what they want, but at any cost? If Alonso wins it this year I know where he should put his precious trophy!
And god, I'd wish the FIA had the balls to set up a fan poll on f1.com and let people show what they think about this behaviour!

For those who haven't read the press conference:
http://www.autosport.com/news/report.php/id/85561
Q. (Ian Gordon – News of the World) Fernando, you said after Valencia that the race had been manipulated in favour of Lewis. Those words seem a bit hollow now. Where will this victory rank in your career, is it up there with Singapore 2008?
Q. (Juha Päätalo – Financial Times Germany) Fernando, I think we all know what happened on lap 48 and we don't need any fairy tales about tyres or anything to be clear of that. I just want to ask you, because in 2006 in Monza you said that Formula One is not a sport any more for you but was that which we saw today a sport?
Q. (Ian Parkes – The Press Association) Fernando, you've said that you're happy with this win but to be honest, I've never seen a driver look less happy in the middle of a podium there today, and in the middle of this press conference here. Why can't you just be honest with us for once, and just admit that this win was handed to you on a plate today?
>> very good questions! Very bad or to be honest, no answers...
